December 2023 Weather in the PNW

[SilverFallsAndrew]

45/37 day so far at PDX. Quite seasonal.

The traditional rug pull pissing match is back. Traditions never die.

Been gone for a little while. Is the forum in winter cancel mode or epic winter mode right now?

Well we know things are serious when Rob's FB group goes into STORM MODE!

I hate to disappoint you, but it probably won’t get that ugly.

Depends how much you talk shit without actually replying to people and attempting to have discourse with people who are more adept than me at debating their points. Tim has called you out on this plenty of times and he is way better than me at responding to you when you mock him.

I haven’t been able to access my old account for a couple years, for the record. I think Fred banned it into the Stone Age. Besides that I don’t have any others.

Anyway, probably 95% of my posts these days are weather related. And I ignore multiple attempts by others to stir up sh*t with me on a weekly basis. I’m definitely still not perfect, but I hope most here can see I’ve tried pretty hard to clean up my act for the most part.

It seems it might snow, but everyone will be banned and unable to talk about it.

You are always stirring it up.   Always making mocking comments without quoting so you can deny it.   You are way better than you used to be... and so am I if you are being honest.    But don't play innocent.

Just breathe and let it go. I have never gone after you personally. The only thing I’ve ever called you out on are your portrayal of weather events down that way. I think you have a tendency to exaggerate in a negative direction pretty consistently. It’s almost humorous at points. But otherwise you seem like a decent guy and I wish the best for you.

And anyone who has been here for a long time will tell you it is for the absolute best that I more or less do not engage with certain posters anymore. Maybe that will change someday, but for now it seems like the easiest path to improvement on my part.

12Z Euro ensembles, ensemble mean, ops run and control 

[TigerWoodsLibido]

And I’m not perfect either. I’ve tried to tone down the impulsive negative posts about my location compared to how bad I was before. Mostly just posting less often has helped.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Personally, I do think Jesse has done a good job over the past few years compared to 6-7 years ago.

I'm betting no.  Pretty cool air mass today.

Renton has hit 50

[SilverFallsAndrew]

@TigerWoodsLibido can we get some current conditions? I see it is 41 at Springfield City Hall RIGHT NOW. 

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

Cool pic with the fog.

[TigerWoodsLibido]

42F here and cloudy. Pretty comfortable out there. Actually feels like a nice winter day. Got down into the 30s last night.

Probably more on the way, despite some of the model pullback.

55 years ago snow was turning to freezing rain on the heeling of a 12-15” snowstorm as an airmass for the ages was being escorted out of the region.

Much nicer than the 50-60 burgers we’d been having so it’s a start for sure.

In fairness to Jim, North Bend seems stuck in the forties today.

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

Had some strange weather at cabin yesterday. 2 days of freezing fog and then last night it started to drizzle at 28 degrees,  cleared up at midnight and dropped to 24. 6am clouds rolled in with more rain and 26 and at 7am it warmed to 32 under moderate snow and dumped 2 inches in couple hrs. In ten years I've never seen it rain in late December.  

[SilverFallsAndrew]

In the name of reporting the facts. Many of my neighbors do appear to be happy we are above the fog!

Only upper 40s here. But feels downright frigid after the recent torching.

I already gave him credit for a good call.

I take a nap for 16 hours and there are like 15 pages to scroll through. Is it coming?

We are just trying to figure out who on the forum has the biggest a55h0le.

It already was here. Just left. Now we're voting on who is banned.

It was coming, then it wasn’t coming but actually is still coming…Unless your name is Fried Eggs or Andrew.

Despite someone's pronouncements it has been sunny all day at this spot in Western Oregon. 

Fog hasn't broken here all day and I'm sure it won't at all. Living in the foothills would be pretty sweet.

East coast weenies probably aren’t happy with that.

I want to see these ridic runs from the Euro again. Only verify this time.
